Do not use washing powder,
Never use sharp objects such as metal scourers or knives to remove the hardened remains of food from the surface.
Never use a knife, scraper or similar device to clean the area where the glass meets the trim of the burners or the decorative metal frame.
Do not slide pans over the glass because they could scratch it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp objects on the glass. Never strike any part of the cooking hob.
Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and vegetables will scratch the glass surface.
DO
After each use, clean the surface of the respective burner parts
once they are cold. If any bits are left (overcooked food, drops of grease etc.), however few they will become
stuck to the surface and more difficult to remove later.
To keep the burners and pan supports clean, you must clean them periodically by placing them in soapy weather and brushing and with a non- metallic brush to ensure that the holes and grooves are perfectly clean, and can provide a perfect flame. Always dry the burner covers and the pan supports if they have become wet.
Use a glass scraper, and always lay it flat to the glass, taking special care not to get it too near to the trim on the gas burners.
After finishing cleaning, dry all the burner parts together w ith their casing. T he ring and the burner cap must be inserted w hen placing them on the burner casing.
M oisture and the incorrect positioning of the respective burner parts w ill affect the uniformity of the flame generated.
Melted sugar and spilt foods that have a high sugar content should immediately be removed from the hotplate using the glass scraper. After washing the pan supports, dry them well before using them to cook again - if there are still any drops of water or damp patches left when you start cooking, they could damage the enamel.
When cleaning the pan supports, be careful with the pegs, as they could come loose and scratch the glass or the frame the next time you use the pan support.
